I received my kit and the pen light does not work well even when I press it down to activate the light it doesn't stay on longer than a second. Why?

The short answer is because you have purchased a low quality product. The longer answer likely has something to do with the connection being made when you push down on the stem (?) of the pen light. Try moving the entire carriage either forward or backwards using something stiff, yet soft enough (so as not to damage the light).

Mine still works. It is not bright at all. And it's tilted now from being in my pocket. I have to hold it at a certain angle and very close to the pts eye because it is so light. I just use my floor's flashlight. Really the white organizer and scissors is what I use daily. And I love it. It fits into scrub pocket, absorbs any pen leaks and keeps everything upright.

You should press the clip, and see is the right zone of contact. The light is not very intense but enough to examination. I hope to do help you.

Pen light is not great. Had to keep cleaning the contacts with an eraser and still not great but not why I purchased the product. The pocket organizer keeps lab coat clean, scissors are nice and work very well.

My guess is you got a defective one. They are fairly inexpensive to begin with, so it wouldn't be a long shot if you ended up getting one that was malfunctioning the way you are describing. My advice is to just send it back to Amazon so they can replace it with another one. I know it's an inconvenience, but in the end, you'll be glad you did. It's a great light, especially when it works the way it's supposed to.

I would return it if it is not even lighting up. Mine works well with the batteries. It sounds like something might be wrong with the unit. It has to light up to work. Good Luck!but

Mine does the same thing. I unscrewed the bottom cap and the top cap (not the head where the light is) wiped all battery contact surfaces and now it is better but sometimes comes on dim. This would suggest it's a manufacturing problem and not necessarily the switch. However, I wouldn't rule that out as the whole unit is not the best quality I have seen in these types of flashlights. I guess you get what you pay for.

I also have that touch lamp and mine works perfectly. Love it. There could be something in the wiring in the pole part of the lamp, that is giving you a short.

Did you make sure your batteries are fully charged? Perhaps cleaning the copper contacts would help as well. The first things I do when receiving a flash light is always cleaning the dirt/grime in the threads and the contact points. I've had no problems with this particular light and I actually like it quite a bit

I'm not too sure if your mouse is defective. I've been using this mouse for while and it's been fully functional for me. I would try switching between user profiles on the mouse which also change the color of the mouse lighting. It may also be a software issue.

I thought mine didn't work at all. Had to tap on it pretty hard. Even then, it's not very bright.

Have no idea, since I just got them this week, the battery that is already installed, is very good. I tried taking off the top part, but no luck. I guess they figure the price of getting a battery vs just getting a new pen does not warrant an option to opening it up. I got mine for $2.99. I got it for the stylus, not the flashlight. So if the light goes out, no big deal since we have a dozen or so, laying around the house.

I would contact Amazon about this. Your case is a little different because it sounds like an update on your device has made it unrecognizable, if not the pen has stopped working. If it is the pen, it's going to depend on how long you have had it. Sorry I couldn't help you more.

Dont forget any aftermarket fix is never the same as factory tuned. Did you made sure the digitizer and the glass is properly glued together? Sometimes if the job is done improperly it can create a gap so try to make sure everything is set up properly first. Your pen is also much more sensitive tool as it fires magnetic pulses when touched with the screen. Long story short these pulses might activate the screen response while your hand might no longer be able to set it off

NO! (I hit the wrong button on my previous answer. If you are not getting good flow, there is another problem. The tines of the nib may be spread incorrectly, the pen may need cleaning, you may be using an ink with inadequate lubricants (ref to as "dry"). Start by soaking the front section in warm water for an hour, rinse and & try again. If that doesn't work, add a tbsp of clear ammonia and soak again. Also look at the nib. if the tines spread rather than narrow as they proceed to the point, see this vid. If they touch tightly at the tip, also watch it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r_bNRrPk5MY. Start around minute 5.

Is it a matter of replacing a battery or bulb? Otherwise, I think you'll have to call the company. I cannot find my stick right at this moment (I have a couple of different ones) and so I can't check if it's even possible to replace those parts. I imagine the company would replace the whole stick for you - if the light just doesn't work.

When I received mine one of the light fixtures wasn't working properly. I called ePhoto and they sent me a new one the very next day. You may want to call them for that part you need. I am very happy with my ePhoto purchase and their service.

I would send it back. I have had mine for some time and have had no issues with mine. Sounds like a bad light sensor. Good luck.

Sorry. I am not a good resource for questions on this item. The power light came on and it seemed to be working and when I plugged it into my computer to initially charge it my computer recognized it as a video device but from that point on the pen would net turn back on or function.

I have experienced similar issues with my brand new light. These things are poorly made and do not function well at all. I would not recommend this product to anyone. I consider it a waste of money.
